I am pretty tech illiterate so, here goes..

I have an older laptop (4 yrs old) that only has a VGA output and I own a Phillips 42" Plasma that appears to only have SVideo input and 2 HDMI inputs but no VGA input.

Can I even use a VGA cord with my tv? Are there any cords or anything that I can get so I can watch movies that are on my laptop on my TV...or is there just no way around it (other than buying a newer laptop with a SVideo output)?

I cant see MAC Glitter Brillants in Fuschia on the MAC webite only silver and rust and they dont have it at the MAC store near me.

Is this color hard to find right now?

My grandmother passed away and left to me a beautiful china tea set she received 52 yrs ago as a wedding gift. It is in mint condition, never been used or even out of its gift box (not original box) It is a dragon theme and has 6 cups, creamer, tea pot, sugar bowl, 6 plates the cups sit on and 6 larger plates. The dragon is actually raised from the china (it is real china) etc. All pieces are stamped with blue and say "Foreign" I cant find any information on any of it, and I cant seem to find anything that looks like it either. It looks more Japanese than Chinese to me?? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

I have 14 month boy/girl twins. I have read and heard conflicting info on what age it is appropriate to start potty training. I'm interested in hearing some advice and opinions on when to start introducing the potty.

Also, with them being different sexes, will they need to learn different ways or can I teach my son to sit down as well? My husband works during the day, and I work in the evening. Thus, my son learning the stand up method from his dad is a bit out of the question and since I dont have a penis, I am not entirely sure what to do :)

Silly questions I know, but I'm feeling a bit overwhelmed with the two of them.

Any good advice, success stories and tips is greatly appreciated.

I am 22, 5"4 and I was pregnant with twins. They are natural (no IVF) I weighed 130lbs prepregnancy and weighed 205lbs when I delivered. I am down to 145lbs, 4 months after giving birth. My stomach is disgusting. The skin is grotesque, there is little to no fat on it, its just loose skin hanging there. I have tried using support garments to push the skin back, but my doctor informed me that its gone back as much as it ever will. I cannot wear properly fitting pants etc. I am curious if canada health care provides any coverage towards a tummy tuck procedure? My abdominal muscles are also split in two from having such a large pregnant stomach and according to what I have read online with the procedure they also stitch the muscles back together. Does anyone have any information regarding this question? Thanks
